What is the CS Form No. 100?

The Civil Service Commission’s revised CS Form No. 100, released in September 2016, is a two-page application form for individuals interested in taking the Philippine Civil Service Exams. This two-page form acts as an application for the Civil Service Exams, a mandatory test for various government positions. It’s important to note that the form itself is free to reproduce (not for sale) and can be downloaded from the CSC website or reproduced from other sources like this website.

Filling out the CS Form No. 100 requires detailed information from the applicant. The first page focuses on personal data such as name, age, sex, and contact details. It also delves into educational background, requiring details on degrees earned, schools attended, government exams passed, CS eligibility, employment history and inclusive dates of attendance. The second page shows the admission and application requirements, exam reminders and signatories. The declaration of oath, certifying that the information given are true, is also located at the last page.

Modes of Taking the Civil Service Exam

There are two options for taking the CSE:

• Pen-And-Paper Test (PPT) is the traditional way of taking the test, in which you have to shade circles using a black ballpoint pen. This test costs ₱500, and the results come out 60 days after the exam.
• Computerized Examination (COMEX) lets you take the exam on a computer at your registered CSC testing center. While this option is on the pricier side compared to the PPT (requiring a ₱680 fee), the exam results can be expected a week after taking the examination.
